.SYNOPSIS FOR NEW ENGLAND WATERS...Weak high pressure will remain
over the area through Thu as weak lows move NE along a surface
front nearly stationary just SE of the waters. High pressure
gradually shifts E Thu night and Fri ahead of a cold front. This
slow-moving front approaches the coast Fri, then weakens and
dissipates just offshore Fri night. Another cold front
approaches from the W Sat, moves into the area Sat night, then
weakens and dissipates across the waters Mon. High pressure
builds in from the W behind the front late Sun night through Mon
night. A stationary boundary will extend across the eastern
portion of the waters Sun, and remain in place through Mon night.
